Logistics for island party?

Not only transportation, you will need waste patrol!
Meaning rent a porta potti, the ones on construction sites, at backyard weddings, etc. A MUST.

Is your island place the only residence? Contact your neighbors on the island and your neighbors at your mainland facility.

This is an excellent point. With 50 people on a small island needing to use the facilities over a short period of time....you could OVERLOAD a Septic system.

A Porta Potti might be going a bit overboard, don't you think? After all, half the guest could get by with the nearest tree.

You may want to consider contacting Sandy Island Camp. I believe their boat (40' passenger boat) has been used to ferry island party goers in the past.

Ask Jim at the NASWA resort at the Weirs, if he will rent out their motor yacht. Plenty big for what you want to do.

Before anyone can take passengers for hire they must have a NH Commercial Vessel Operators license (or a Coast Guard Masters if taking more than 6 people) and have a commercial vessel that is inspected by the NHMP. If there is no pay, then it is OK to use the old Pontoon.

PS. I've got the boat and the ticket and I just love a good party!
